Therapeutic Modalities:

The holistic treatment experience at Elements, thoughtfully developed to include evidence-based practices.  In more clinical terms, “holistic treatment” can be referred to as a bio-psycho-social model. 

 

Cognitive Strategies (Top Down approaches: When we talk about a top-down approach, we're focused on starting therapy with the parts of the brain we associate with thinking, speaking, and current emotional awareness. These are the topmost areas of the brain.

  • Individual Therapy, Group Therapy, DBT, CBT, Motivational Interviewing, The Seven Challenges, Executive Functioning strategies and coaching.

 

Mind-Body Practice (Bottom-Up approaches): The bottom-up approach begins with information acquired from the body's sensations. The bottom-up approach accepts that feelings or even body sensations happen first.

  • Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), Mindfulness, Emotion-focused Therapy (EFT), Distress Tolerance, Sensory Regulation, Nature/Forest Bathing

 

Academic Information:

Our clients are without exception all students too. Their education is incredibly important, and for many families, the changes in their child’s grades served as a real warning to deeper underlying concerns that led them to seek help in the first place.

Although our primary goals are emotional, psychological, and interpersonal education, traditional education is always important. Our objective is to get all our clients back into real life feeling empowered to take on the next challenges, not feeling hopeless and behind. The reality is that most of our clients learn more and work harder in their short time with us than they have in the years leading up to their arrival at Elements.

We offer up to 3.5 credits for clients who complete the outdoor therapy program, (Accredited through North Central Accreditation) to help our clients gain academic credit for the work they are already doing here.
